From the Snail Mail Inbox: W.L. Strawberry Shortcake

This is just one of the fabulous postcards recently received through the mail and added to the WLT Inc. Ephemera Archive - a World's Largest Strawberry Shortcake, from Lebanon Oregon.  And, lookit that knife those ladies are holding!  No date on it, nor other info, as it was a photo postcard with a generic back.  See the rest of the newest Ephemera Archive additions on our Flickr photo blog:  http://www.flickr.com/photos/56214196@N00

BIG NEWS! WLCoWSVoWLT to be in the 2010 Topp's Allen and Ginter World Champions set...

We hadn't announced it officially yet, but the news is out, the hype is building, and Collector Card sites are buzzing about the 2010 Allen and Ginter Collector Card set.  Topps released a list of upcoming cards, and true to form, the WLCoWSVoWLT piques interest and confusion, and we're all a-twitter about the buzz.  There probably isn't another baseball set that generates as much hobby buzz as Topps Allen & Ginter. In 2010, Topps will hope to build on the set's legacy with some new wrinkles including Book Cards and all new insert cards.  Here are some handy info links, as well as previews and reactions -

(Excerpt) The Framed Autograph checklist is big, running 85 cards. Sure there's regulars like Ryan Howard and David Wright, but color me most intrigued about the autograph of "The World's Largest Collection of the World's Smallest Versions of the World's Largest Things" (that's how the card is listed on the checklist). I'm guessing it has something to do with this.

 

WHOOP!  We're looking forward to seeing our card, and it'll be a hoot to spot one in the wild, too... Tell your Card Collector friends, and grab a WLCoWSVoWLT Collector Card of your own!  We'll be in the World Champion set...

Look for the Kewpie Dunny (in the pic), and an Elusive Caffinated Dunnalope (image unavailable - hence the 'elusive' designation) in the mega-display of Dunnys from all over the world...
